“A battery is a device that is able to store electrical energy in the form of chemical energy, and convert that energy into electricity,” says Antoine Allanore, a postdoctoral associate at MIT’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering.
Batteries are valued as devices that store chemical energy and convert it into electrical energy. Unfortunately, the standard description of electrochemistry does not explain specifically where or how the energy is stored in a battery; explanations just in terms of electron transfer are easily shown to be at odds with experimental observations.
“The ions transport current through the electrolyte while the electrons flow in the external circuit, and that’s what generates an electric current.” If the battery is disposable, it will produce electricity until it runs out of reactants (same chemical potential on both electrodes).
Batteries were invented in 1800, but their complex chemical processes are still being studied. Scientists are using new tools to better understand the electrical and chemical processes in batteries to produce a new generation of highly efficient, electrical energy storage.
Electrical energy comes from the movement of electrical charge. Electrical energy is useful because it can be transferred into lots of different types of energy. For example: Electrical energy can be transferred to heat energy to boil a kettle. Electrical energy can be transferred to light energy in a lightbulb.
